Abstract
A method for processing images in a display device outputting 3-dimensional (3D) contents and a display device using the same are disclosed herein. The method includes the steps of adjusting output positions of one of a first video image and a second video image, adjusting an angle of one of the first video image and the second video image, and outputting the first video image and the second video image in a 3D format.
Claims20
A method of outputting images from a 3-dimensional (3D) display device, the method comprising:
- setting an optimal viewing distance which is related to a size of a display panel of the 3D display device;
- determining a user viewing distance, the user viewing distance corresponding to a distance between a user and the 3D display device;
- and
- displaying 3D image data based on the set optimal viewing distance and the user viewing distance,
- wherein the displayed 3D image data has a first depth value and a first tilt value for the displayed 3D image when the user viewing distance is shorter than the optimal viewing distance by at least a first reference value,
- wherein the displayed 3D image data has a second depth value which is greater than the first depth value and a second tilt value which is greater than the first tilt value when the user viewing distance is longer than the optimal viewing distance by at least the first reference value,
- wherein each of the first tilt value and the second tilt value comprises a horizontal tilt value and a vertical tilt value, and
- wherein the determining the user viewing distance further includes detecting an IR signal received from predetermined glasses and determining a position of the predetermined glasses on x, y, and z axes based on the detected IR signal.

A 3-dimensional (3D) display device, comprising:
- a position determining part to determine a user viewing distance, the user viewing distance corresponding to a distance between a user and the 3D display device;
- an output position adjuster to determine an output position of 3D image data based on an optimal viewing distance and the user viewing distance, the optimal viewing distance being predetermined depending on a size of a display panel of the 3D display device;
- and
- a display configured to display the 3D image data at the determined output position,
- wherein the displayed 3D image data has a first depth value and a first tilt value for the displayed 3D image when the user viewing distance is shorter than the optimal viewing distance by at least a first reference value,
- wherein the displayed 3D image data has a second depth value which is larger than the first depth value and a second tilt value which is larger than the second tilt value when the user viewing distance is longer than the optimal viewing distance by at least the first reference value,
- wherein each of the first tilt value and the second tilt value comprises a horizontal tilt value and a vertical tilt value, and
- wherein, when the user viewing distance is determined, the position determining part detects an IR signal received from predetermined glasses and determines a position of the predetermined glasses on x, y, and z axes based on the detected IR signal.
